toucHscReeN & MousepAd tips

The mousepad and mouse buttons

The mousepad functions like a laptop touchpad. Simply drag your nger on its surface to move the on-screen cursor. •

To display pop-up info boxes (for example, when you want to see a le’s attributes), you will need to use the mousepad to •

move the cursor over an item without clicking on it.

The two buttons, on the left side of the device act like a mouse’s left and right buttons.•

The touchscreen

The screen of your ARCHOS is entirely tactile. To select an item, tap on it. To open it, tap it twice.To drag an item or select an

area, simply slide your nger on the screen. Holding your nger at a specic position is the equivalent of a mouse’s right-click.

To congure the touchscreen, open up the eGalaxTouch program (from the desktop).This will allow you to:

recalibrate your screen (• Tools tab) in case the cursor doesn’t align with your nger.

activate/deactivate the• auto right click (Settings tab > Options). This option allows you to make a right-click when you keep your

nger held down on the screen.

adjust the• Double Click area parameter (Settings tab) in case an item doesn’t always open when you tap twice on it.

adjust the sensitivity area of the screen’s edges (• Edge compensation tab) in case it is difcult to slide scroll bars on the edges of

the screen.

WiFi Connection

Make sure you know your WiFi network’s name (which you usually define when you set up your modem) as well as its security key (of the type WEP or WPA).

Each WiFi network (school, home, café) has a different name and key.

Make sure that your WiFi module is turned on by holding on the “A” button and pressing on the top mouse button (on the left side of the device).

To make the initial connection, click on the WiFi icon in the system tray (in the bottom right corner of the screen), and you will see all the WiFi

networks detected by the ARCHOS.

Select your WiFi network, and click on Connect.You might need to type the security key which can be found in the documentation that came with your

modem (or which was defined by the person who set up the WiFi modem).Then click on Ok.

In the system tray (in the bottom right corner of the screen), the icon indicates that there is an active WiFi connection. The icon indicates that

there is no connection but a WiFi hot spot has been detected. You can click on these items at anytime in order to connect or disconnect from the Internet.

It is also suggested that you use the combination “A” button and the lower mouse button to turn off the WiFi module when not connected to the Internet

in order to save battery power.
